Married Philippines journalists murdered

Two married journalists were murdered in the Philippines yesterday. George Vigo and his wife, Macel Alave-Vigo, were shot as they returned to their home in Kidapawan, on the southern island of Mindanao. Vigo was a contributor to Union of Catholic Asian News while his wife was a presenter for dxND radio. The couple also contributed to the creation of the Federation of Reporters for Empowerment and Equality (FREE). As Reporters Without Borders notes yet again, the Philippines "is one of the most dangerous countries in the world for journalists." (Via editorandpublisher.com)
